You Can't Make Me Happy

I'm in my classroom today.  This morning I spent about four hours creating my pre-teaching assessment for Map & Globe Skills.  I've created a self-checking matrix for my students to use as we review the questions and answers together.

Everything was great.  I went to lunch with my wife.

Then...

I decide to get down to my serious business -- finding what websites are blocked by our censoring filtering software.  I've spent hours at home finding online resources that we can use in class, knowing that I will need to request that some sites will need to be unrestricted in the near future.

So What's The Problem?

The filter is turned off!  @#$$#^ it all anyway!  I can't find out what I need to know because while no one is using the computers except admins and techies they don't need the filter on!  As if these folks aren't going to waste time visiting otherwise non-educational websites, yeah right.

So, I can't get me no satisfaction.  Unless you count the fact that I was able to blog this.
